IT'S amazing what a set of alloy wheels and a mesh grille can do for a car. In the case of the S-Type it gives a somewhat rounded and unresolved shape more grounding and force - brutalises it somewhat. That's appropriate considering the performance the car is capable of. Apart from the 18-inch Zeus alloys and the grille's brightwork, Jaguar has also de-chromed the body, added a small lipped rear spoiler, Xenon headlights behind tinted lenses and subtle red "R" badging. Behind the alloys you can see the big red calipers of the Brembo brakes as well, but some styling impact was lost by using solid rather than cross-drilled discs.
